Pros

If you like to travel then the consulting group gives you plenty of opportunities. Young, fun, co-workers. Lots of good socializing bonding.

Cons

Lack of career training. Lack of experience of senior management. Plenty of favoritism within career advancement. No other opportunities to learn different skills so you get stuck in a rut.

Decent company, although lacking in upward mobility.

Business Outlook

Pros

Not a bad salary and solid benefits. Friendly coworkers and a strong management team. Company seems to be stable after restatement of earnings in the past.

Cons

There was no clear direction for members of the marketing team to transition to sales. No performance based raises (although that was also due to the economy at the time).

Great technology but needs a COO to better manage/communicate corporate procesess and operations company wide.

Sales

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

As it is still considered a small to medium sized company you are able to learn a lot by wearing a lot of different hats. The work and environment is very dynamic. Executive Management has begun to host quarterly online webcasts to communicate to the sales force. Great product and technology. Customers are satisfied.

Cons

Doesn't support continued professional education. Additionally, it would help immensely to have more communication interdepartmentally. International communication could also improve. Not enough training. The company should match more on the 401K. Also the CEO has a lot of power to the point where it's micromanaging.
